Call off talks with Singapore, ban Kausikan!

"Simple analogy – imagine sitting with someone that you know who has been bad-mouthing you to others. How would you feel?" - by Mergawati Zulfakar of The Star newspaper under the headline Singapore's Disdain Exposed.

I agree.

She was referring to the Malaysia-Singapore meeting on Dec 22 where the Republic's most senior officer at the Foreign Ministry Bilahari Kausikan will lead a delegation to discuss KTM Berhad’s land swap deal.

Malaysian officials will be sitting down with the very man who claimed, among others, that Malaysia was “confused and dangerous, fueled by the distinct possibility of racial conflict”, as exposed by Wikileaks.

Now, where is our dignity? We have been 'bowing out' to Singapore on many occasions. The KTM land deal, the water concession (the cheapest in the world), our Woodlands naval base and most but not least the manner they won Pulau Batu Putih.

We have been very tolerance each time their jet fighters invade our air space and closed our eyes to their reclaimation of land across Johore which is environmentally-hazardous to our marine lifes and affecting the income of our fishermen.

What else? We help them becoming rich all this while and let them re-export of products with their 'Produce of Singapore' labelling.

There were never sincere as far as our two-way relations are concerned. They are selfish and only took us for a ride. To them, Malaysia is a low-class nation and will forever never be at par with them.'

Sickening! And we still want to say 'hello brothers' to them? Do we need to pretend our displeasure when both sides meet up next week? I think its better to call off or postpone the meeting indefinitely until someone apologizes.

When we attend a meeting for mediation, and its a known fact that a member he/she is known for belittling us, and who is having a mightier than thou/holier than thou mentality, might as well we call it off. No point in pursuing the agenda. Its a wasted effort. What not in forking out the money for preparations , the logistics and knowing very well it will not turn out good.I suggest Dato Anifah to request from the government across the causeway to replace the delegation head.Otherwise might as well use the money to contribute to rumah anak anak yatim lagi berfaedah.We do not want anymore of Pulau Batu Putih outcome.

This Bilahari Kausikan fellow and the two other WOCs (Westernised Oriental Chinamen) should tender their resignation or be demoted/posted out of the MFA, if they are really people of honour. LSL should also tender an apology to Malaysia for the "bad mouthings" that his MFA senior officers did. BTW, is this Kausikan a keling? He looks very fair and chinese.
